(Steven)

   This past week  was pretty good. Things are "normal" now so we're finally getting into a routine. I've mostly been helping with the farm chores. On three different days my primary task was working with corn. The boys, led by Elton picked a wagon load of corn and dumped it out on the soccer quad. A couple days later we went out and started husking it, then sending it through tractor powered sheller. That was one of the main jobs for me the next couple days as well as helping with the barn chores, such as milking cows, cleaning the concrete off, and grinding corn into feed with the home's motorized grinder.
    We've been getting to know the boys better and I many times get myself in over my head in wrestling. For some reason they find it necessary to send in more boys whenever it seems I'm getting ahead. It's pretty amusing, and the boys love it. It's also gotten me into trouble because once I start, they don't stop for about a week.
    We also walked into town one day to buy some snack items. First we had to find the bank which I had seen a few days prior, but couldn't remember where exactly it was, so that resulted in walking back and forth down several streets till we found it. I was interesting walking around there and seeing how a brasilian town functions business-wise.
    Most of the pictures have to do with Josh, so I will let him put those on. So until next week this is Steven... signing out...
